US healthcare debate: Glenn Beck v Glenn Beck

The Daily Show reveals Glenn Beck's flip-flop on the need for healthcare reform in America

Fox News presenter Glenn Beck has been one of the leading opponents of Barack Obama's healthcare reform plan and has used Britain's NHS as an example of why America shouldn't change its system.

As comedian Jon Stewart said last night on The Daily Show, Beck's argument is essentially: "Don't fix it if it's already awesome." But Beck's opposition to reform runs counter to a personal story about problems with US healthcare highlighted by none other than ... Glenn Beck.

The Daily Show played clips of Beck complaining about the US health system after he had an operation in 2008. Beck said his surgery was an "eye-opening experience" and aired a segment about his "personal voyage through the nightmare that is our healthcare system".

Sixteen months later, Beck is claiming America's system is "the best healthcare system in the world". Confused? Watch the video above to see if you can make sense of it all.

Meanwhile Stewart's former Daily Show colleague Stephen Colbert reported on sponsors pulling ads from Beck's show because the Fox News presenter said he believed Obama is a "deep-seated racist". Moments later, he claimed he wasn't saying the president "doesn't like white people".

Such flip-flopping seems to be part of a pattern on Beck's show. The presenter played a video montage comparing beginnings of Obama's healthcare plan with Nazi Germany's eugenics programme. Immediately after the clip, Beck said we wasn't claiming eugenics is coming.

Colbert rushed to Beck's defence: "The problem is too many people only focus on the first half of what Glenn Beck says and not the second half where he immediately disavows the first half".

You're a fan of Glenn Beck?

Absolutely! The man is entertaining, and he has pissed all over Sean Hannity, by taking taking away his "serious" following.

Sean Hannity had a "serious" following?

BTW I am really beginning to hate Ed Schultz.

Oh, yeah! When I quit listening to Rush, during his drug days, people work tell me, "Oh, you got to listen to this Hannity kid!. He is really speaking the truth!"

I am a FNC junkie, but I can't stand that guy! And, Mark Furman as a guest? That is another reason for me to get up and change the channel. (I know. The sat receiver is in the other room. Such a ######!)
